@ Indi

Your analysis makes me spell bound every time. Your perception to see things is so cognitive and poignant. Always love to read it.

The lines below I loved most and I added some extra in red bold.

a string that ties a whole world together. and of no strings attached. while a pretender desecrates a string. here are some glimpses of this tender to creepy to rib tickling funny episode.

Brilliant observation.👏

the creatives take us seamlessly from a deep emotional, intense day to a happy and light one with notes of fire in it

Hats off to CVs. It was indeed a beautiful episode

there was a low animal quality to shyam. survival and his gain his only motive. whatever i want i must get. he said as much to khushi when he advised her to do what her heart pleases; asr also wanted to live life his own way but not by hurting and disrespecting others, certainly not by lying and cheating. for he had that one thing, shyamu darling never got to taste... conscience.

Loved how you desribed Shyam and Arnav's character.Shyam was sly like a fox, but ASR was a guileless lion.

bhaiyer kopale dilam phonta, jomer duare podlo kaanta. i will protect my brother said this.

Aww so sweet! I love bengali. I used to watch bengali movies with my Dad. Satyajeet Roy is his favorite and Tagore's song too. Now I'm all busy with Arnav and Khushi.hehehe.

goes without saying, for asr and anjali, this was far far far more than a ritual. a joyous, pure, and happy reminder of their meaning in each other's lives. he had appointed himself her caretaker at 14... and she had let him. she made a rakhi for him every year. he kept a fast with her, and together, these two siblings born of the same mother, found their ma once again when holding out their hands to each other and committing to their relationship. this is a tie from birth, and it shall be kept, honoured. a lot of their tragically departed mother was part of this story. even for naniji, and perhaps mamaji. daughter, sister, mother, their ma was all of them after all. and equally cherished in those roles.

Arnav and Anjali's bonding is so special. Anjali is like a mother to Arnav and Arnav is like a father figure to her who vowed to protect her till death. Their mom's presence was everywhere in the family.

here i'm trying to muster all my sisterly feelings over this touching scene. and all i can see is a splash of red flaming at the centre of a forehead and white shirt offsetting gorgeous skin.

Uff he was looking too delicious! Isn't he the sexiest man in the world!

but daljeet is flawless as sister. and he as brother. when talk started of daljeet leaving, it was hard to imagine who could ever replace her.

So true. we can't imagine anyone else in Anjali's character.She was just perfect.We actually made several pleas to keep her back.

gadzooks, pass the samosas. and off went the crunchiest tastiest part of episode. lots of chillies and bite in it. and hiccups.

Khushi was too hilarious and eccentric too. I can't imagine myself mouth full of food in front of a young sexy fellow.Or moreover she already had a crush on him.

of course, the shock is too much. and all she can do is go into auto pilot and reach for comfort. for khushi that is food. always. in joy, in sorrow, at night, or morrow. a defence in its own way i guess. to save herself from a devastating sense of emptiness at times when an accident and two people gone come to mind. don't know psychology... but there's something in that constant eating of hers. nonstop... chana, ber, chew nail... and of course jalebi, gol gappa, aloo poori, you name it. we shall get to the bottom of it in season 2.

Khushi was an absolute foody. If in real life somebody eats that much,would sure turn to a hippo soon. But it's true that some people get the habit of eating to release stress.

he can feel how the small town dupattewali can have plenty influence on big city cool rich good looking people?

Coz Arnav could see the epitome of natural beauty what was hidden behind her dupatta.

samin,
in india, practically everywhere in the north, right up to calcutta you get great samosas. in delhi, bengali market if you're close by, if not any area will have it's sweets and samosa joint. in calcutta almost all the major sweet shops make samosa at some point during the day. uff, killing me, the thought. if you get the small samosas i calcutta: shingara... do try, delicious.

When traveling will go to Delhi so will try bengali market Indi. OK, I went to Delhi on 2011 nov for the first time for a week. So it was big deal. It was actually one of my dreams that I would go to Delhi visit all places and shop. Now guess what I did. I stayed and watched IPK repeat telecasts in the hotel. Made sure I came back by 8 pm because it was the 1st week of nov. Anyways anyone who has not been to Delhi it is a nice place and worth a visit. . It was the last week of October so went to bhirbhumi to visit Mahatma gandhi, Rajiv Gandhi and Indira Gandhi's shamadhi.You know the Bir Bhumi area is very peaceful. So I walked around the area. And in any case I would also have liked to meet Sonia and Rahul Gandhi but was not possible. Anyways saw the biggest most beautiful butterflies around the area of Indian parliament. Now I think they thought I was trying to bridge the security or something, because this crazy IPK fan you know what she did-- I took a taxi every single day and went around the areas they show on car in IPK. I think one is tughlak lane, one is in front of India gate and another in front of a road in front of Lodhi garden. I even was looking for the Devi Mayya Mandir- but could not find it. On top I really stopped myself from eating pani puris and chaat in front of India gate.

Episode 66

From now on these episodes remind me of a favorite child hood game called "ghar ghar (house house)" where my bestie and i would take on the role of husband and wife, imitate our parents...loads of fun. Nani has put this game in motion, but the players are oblivious. If only they'd all closely pay attention...they would notice how their inner beings strive to fulfill their spousal duties. Love that!!!! But its a good thing they are ignoring their gut, all the yelling, blaming, irritating is half the fun and make those little tender "rabba ves" that much more special...

Khushi makes a list of "To teach La" while Anjali dictates,
"chotey ki pasand na pasand hum aapko bata denge (I'll tell you his likes and dislikes)" ... Ofcourse, Anjali would tell his "wife" first about his likes and dislikes, but what's more interesting is the alertness on Khushi's face as Anjali says that... I felt a weeny bit of excitement from her and the willingness to learn about her laad governor...afterall, that's one of the reasons she's here IMO. Anjali continues with the list and feels overwhelmed, but our eternal optimist Khushi tell her to relax. "just tell me when the wedding is?" one little question...Anjali was mortified as La makes clearifies "no marriage for ASR or Me" leaving khushi confused which leads two words: Live in.
"live-in matlab? (live-in meaning?)"

What an entertaining scene this was, a small-town girl trying to grasp the concept of a man and woman doing marital things...well, pre-marriage. For someone who grew up only learning the conventional ways of "ghar (one's house after marriage)" "sansaar (marriage life)" parivaar (kids)" surely this is hard to understand. La spells it out for her "Live-in is when a boy and a girl live together without being married, meaning a couple that can do anything a married couple can do"

Khushi's innocent world crumbles down, so as always her solution to such situations... FOOD! Bravo to Gul and writers for making Khushi an emotional eater, she likes food in general but when in distress it becomes a way for her to fill that void...not the healthiest thing but oh so realistic! A plate of samosa (yummmy) happens to be close to her, so she picks it up. Each bite seeks an answer, all the while forgetting to chew...her full mouth resembles her full brain...so many questions...so many thought...

OMG I love this and I am so an emotional eater too so this scene I was just hysterical loved it!

Just when her mouth can't get any fuller, (something yummier than samosas walks in) Arnav comes to talk to La...but is drawn to Khushi's puffy cheeks.
OH YEAH!!!! Drooling before the drool corner!
this bit inspired by Ritu's story telling, thanks Ritu!!!

No big reaction from him, but i think he is smitten over this cutie. Her child-like innocence always hit a major chord with him. Seeing Arnav, it hits her, Laad governor + "live-in," and so with her somasa-filled mouth she gives him a dirty look. The whole living-in thing bugged her but deep down, but in addition it was him living-in with La. I smelled a bit of jealousy.

Arnav remembers what he really came down here for, to talk to La about work but is interrupted by a series of hiccups unleashed by Khushi. Even his loud and scary "ENOUGH" didn't work.

The "disturbance" forces him to take the meeting elsewhere
Anjali gives Khushi some water and she finally gulps down her Samosas. On her way out she sees Arnav yelling at La for neglecting work, she draws her own conclusion "Poor Lavanya ji, he's probably forcing her to live in without a marriage by yelling blackmailing." Looking at La. it's hard to digest this misunderstanding, so i felt why this need to just blame Arnav? Could it be that much like Arnav's need to blame her for everything, She subconsciously wants to do the same? later in a ROFL scene, we see her dreaming, she is the judge, he the defendant.

Her verdict? "Ghalati Arnav Singh Raizadaki hai! (It ASR's mistake)" and even though its Buaji that says "Ee ka jail mein daal do (put him in jail)," its her unconscious giving voice to Buaji. She has the same need to punish him now as he had to punish her before the guest house. Nice one!

Khushi leaves before she can see the real picture, Arnav was merely asking La to choose home or career as she can't handle both. Though he may have overreacted due to all the irritation "uss Khushi" is causing... he says to La "Just seeing that Khushi here in the house irritates me all day and on top of that you, if you can't manage both then choose one"

La tries to explain, "how can i handle both?"

"that's why i'm telling you, choose one and mind you, staying with that Khushi Kumaari Gupta, make sure you don't become like her" oh Arnav, why this need to constantly bring her up? He really doesn't want La to turn in another Khushi, he can barely handle this single piece! rofl
"relax ASR, even if i try i can't become like that Chamkili" ...Arnav has a "that's true" expression on his face

Khushi returns home, that earth shattering information still on her mind, she gets herself a drink of water while Buaji comes and makes alot of noise then leaves. Love the way Khushi teaches Payal about "live-in"

The conversation between Shyaam and KHushi is fab. It really wasn't Shyaams's best day: first his wife goes missing, then he finds out that Khushi will return to work for the raizadas, later his wife purposes making Khushi his sister...lastly, he loses his control and lets his true deamon out...rakshash in every sense.

Shyaam is dispicle here, trying to make Khushi feel guilty for refusing to hand him her responsibility...though it was never his for taking. She was never within his reach

Khushi held her own, "yeh galat hai, babuji ka karz utaar ne ke liye hum ek aur karz nahin le sakte (this is wrond, i can talk another loan to payoff babuji's debt!)....I can handle anything for babuji, my ego is nothing in front of babuji, if by doing this babuji can walk with his head held high, i will keep puting up with it" The bond she shared with her adoptive father shines through here, It was so fitting that her father was the first one to know about Shyaam and that scene of his taking the engagement ring off of his daughter's fingers in his state of paralysis... The strength of love and the need to protect them, so well depicted between the two. Unfortunatly lots of lose ends when it came to the Gupta member's financial condition...

DROOL CORNER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

❤️ just adore this look 😊❤️

Wonderful and always drooling!

Thanks Cinthiya for the Jilebi recipe. I would try making JIlebis. You know I was becoming such a jilebi fanatic last year that my brother when he went to vancouver bought some for me and they have a sweet shop close by our company and my dad brings from that for me. What IPK did to me? Anyways if you ever go to vancouver they sell the best Jilebis and I think I tasted the best samosas in Dhaka new market area. If you ever tasted the samosas in Dhaka you would know why I am telling you that in USA or Canada, all the places I lived in I did not taste a good samosa. However as Indi suggested next time I go to delhi or calcutta I would definitely try their samosas and as chalov suggested would actually probably try the roadside one. Now let me tell you where I tasted the most horrible samosas and Jilebis- it was in Kingston, ON.

In the show no wonder Khushi wanted to break her KC fast with the sexy pakora which was made with her XY husband instructing and hovering all over and around her .can never forget that scene how can making pakoras be so sizzling hot hotter then the oil and flame of the stove, wonder whose idea it was makes all the anger against CVs go away and the chemistry of the actors uff uff uff scorching.

sohara thanks so much for your feedback. sometimes i get tired of writing the narrative. i wish i was more creative but it is what it is and i enjoy it! some are definitely better than others. don't like my 69 so much

I just read your take on episode-69. I absolutely loved it. La's plan sure backfired her. But I would be happier if Arnav would know the whole story. But at least he suspected, something happened wrong with Khushi.

Plz don't say that you are not creative.Your post always gives me the clear picture of the episode.

i'm not also a creative person.I also make narrative post. but I still intend to write something, just for the sake of my love for IPK and Arshi. You can say a try to fill up the vacancy of IPK in my life.

Wonderful update of episode-66

Nani has put this game in motion, but the players are oblivious. If only they'd all closely pay attention...they would notice how their inner beings strive to fulfill their spousal duties. But its a good thing they are ignoring their gut, all the yelling, blaming, irritating is half the fun and make those little tender "rabba ves" that much more special...

beatifully depicted. It's happened becoz they were destined to be together.God already made their pair in heaven. They also knew it, but couldn't accept it becoz of their ego.

No big reaction from him, but i think he is smitten over this cutie. Her child-like innocence always hit a major chord with him.

He actually fall for her beauty at first. But later he was so fond of her child like antic.

I smelled a bit of jealousy.

I also think same. She already had a crush on Laad Governor.I know it's really painful to imagine him with other girl.

The strength of love and the need to protect them, so well depicted between the two. Unfortunatly lots of lose ends when it came to the Gupta member's financial condition...

Khushi and her Dad sure shared a strong bond between them. Actually the cvs was kind of oblivious about the financial matter. First they showed Buaji own the house. Later they showed it was a rental property! Though this kind of bloopers are common in IPK.😆

a survivor's guide to how to handle people you hate.

or an analysis of episode 67

1. make sure, no matter what, you crash land into their lives at least once a day. a meeting a day will make the hatred, also known as nafrat, stay. you can choose to do this anywhere you wish. ramps have proven to be extremely useful, especially if tripping gorgeously is a major part of plan. you can find them on the streets, in their office, at sundry sacred trees, dargahs, mandirs, best of all, of course, at their home. oh nothing quite like that. home is where the hate is.

2. dream of them on a regular basis. in such dreams, it is best to see yourself in the role of hero, them as villain. for example, you are the white wigged, morally superior judge to their "darana dhamkana," rakshas who is forcing a helpless woman in skimpy clothes and come hither look to "l-l-live in" with him "bina shadi," and do "sab kuch" with him too.

terrible (where are the samosas). tell him there's no way he can have what he wants. "you are sentenced to living with lavanya (everyone holds their breath, will you force the rakshas to do the right thing and marry this poor maid?)... not." yes, that's right, throw lavanya out of his life. this will lead to exactly what you want in the future and right now too. the rakshas looking monstrously good in his natty brown jacket, will peruse you ferociously from a low angle shot, say "oh, i can't darao her?!! but i can still scare you, can't i" and glide sublimely to his very own music to be right in front of you, breath touching distance, in just a few long strides.

having accomplished your mission, you will fall backward eyes spewing nafrat, lips parting and quivering (it's an age old sign of hatred, especially when combined with heaving bosom). he will stare at you menacingly, eyes gone chocolate. justice will not be able to take such "tauheen," contempt of court.

she will discard her blindfold and appear to you as your favourite bua, rolling pin in hand (justice was despatched by you to make samosa, perhaps?). at this point if it all starts to remind you of the white rabbit, the queen of hearts, eliza dolittle, and the horrible henry higgins, fikar not. all is going fantastically. your nafrat is intact. rabba vey, you are so good at this.

3. every time anyone asks you to leave the city your adversary lives in, refuse to. insist that is what your dm recommends. conversely, every time your enemy says she'll leave town, go into a blue funk and get as many flashbacks of her as possible. nothing like a keen memory to sharpen the daggers.

4. following from 3 (which was a bit of a digression into other episodes but was necessary to create a complete guide), also refuse to be not insulted by him. sounds complicated, but it's simple really. this is what you do: even if someone is willing to pay you large sums of money to square up your debt, insist that the only way you will do this is by earning the amount. and that too, only by working in the very home of the person who doesn't farak you, who is always rude, nasty, as insulting as possible, and who makes you feel "main theek nahin hoon," every time you are mean to him. of course, make sure that you throw in a "shart," a strict one that says you will come to work only when he's not around. this works real well, he will hear of it and another level of how dare she hotness will be scaled.

5. keep your ears clean. whenever anyone mentions, whispers, or even thinks of taking her name, hear it loud and clear. then go still. don't breathe. now, two options:

5. a. glare at the one who has called your nafrat-ed one by a derogatory name such as chamkili, you may also narrow your eyes devilishly upon being told of her fiendish plans. how dare she put down such a condition... not to see you in your own house? it's MERA ghar... MY house, remember? the one from which you are determined to throw her out (i mean how to trust a guest who keeps climbing into you closet and other internal organs, who can blame you for shouting your most lusty "getooouuut," at her... if only your eyes would agree with your voice, sigh).

after eye narrowing, sashay sexily out into the hallway, and on finding her there as she is trying to look nonchalant eating chana, advance menacingly but with ballet like grace toward her, she will be compelled to walk in your direction, eyes only on you. as you cross each other she will mutter nuttily "bina shadi saath saath rakshas," giving you the perfect opportunity to do a mind blowing (see, everything is to your advantage) "what the."

then she will dash into a pillar, and you will not miss any opportunity to stare at her. for good measure this will happen twice... this is serious nafrat, samjhi tum?

5.b when option "a" is not available, you must slip into flashback of woh ladki and plenty rabba vey. this episode however that was not necessary. the dream compensated most adequately, phew.

6. always remember to blame the other, only that one person... laad governor, rakshas, uss ladki, uss khushi kumari gupta, any other new names you might come up with... for all the "galati" in the world. one episode you say it, the next episode let your most important hated person do the needful.

1722. as a master strategy, take over his home. rush around teaching his girl friend how to be the girl he doesn't dream of; make her learn to do the things he doesn't like or care for. leap around the drawing room telling a most fascinating tale of a rather playful one, in the most charming and beguiling vein, leaving all who watch, like his nani, his sis, his favourite man servant, floored. to help you in this endeavour, his clueless l-l-live in poor girl friend in chhotey kapde is standing by.

at her wonderful cues, prance into action, point with grace and utter appeal toward the one you must hate, and call him by the name of another supreme villain, "kans." make sure you are looking like the cutest and most beautiful nut on earth while doing this, some extra ballet (or taekwondo) lessons might help strike the perfect pose. this will work. can't you tell be the way he's looking at you?

8. as reminded by chalhov. and because we are dead serious about this survival guide we don't wish to hold back anything. so here goes: when sitting next to the baddie in his mythical suv (if horses and dragons can by part of myths, why not the white suv), remember never to put on seat belt. although you have driven your dad's car, and will later decimate all traffic rules hurtling frantically through sabzi mandis and things, but at this point, do make it a point not to wear that s thing. this will make sure the hate increases. the enemy can bark "seat belt peheno!" in various shades of boorishness. and at your fumbling, lose patience, reach across brusquely, thrust his face closer to yours, his torso mere millimetres away from yours, combat you in an eye lock while clicking the belt into its slot. even writing this can cause breathing failure, so please, whatever you do, don't miss a chance to inhale and exhale, you will feel the edge of your ear go hot, a certain prickle back of neck, definite change in heart rate, and a difficulty understanding which part of you is feeling what. do not worry.

it is believed that the perpetrator of the seat belt nafrat is undergoing similar symptoms. you will both survive, just about. however, at every opportunity that presents itself try out the seat belt tactic. practice makes perfect. (this was first observed in episode 65, at the very height of nafrating, and although this episode did not present the opportunity, we felt it was important enough to be included here. you never know...)

STICKY (this applies to all episodes, everywhere in the universe, even the ones hunted out of yt and dm): beware, from time to time you may hear things. strange are the effects of nafrat. piano trilling do me so do... hey hey... heyheyhey... more music, then rabba vey... ey ey ey ey. do not panic. in extreme cases of nafrat this may happen. though in recorded history it's never been known to have happened. oh well, there's always a first time... just take basic precautions, you'll be fine. remember, no matter what happens, do not close your eyes, or look away from the opponent's gaze. also, do not move. and should the adversary want to pull you in closer or nuzzle your hair, or frankly whatever, go ahead and let him do it. this is absolutely imperative for survival. live demo of this threat unfortunately not available, but the illustrations will suffice we hope.

to be continued. we hope you found this guide helpful. illustrations and visuals will be added later to clarify the points.

a fabulous chance to learn more skills hands on awaits. it's the musician's birthday party, they say he has some wonderful hate tricks that no one can help but fall for. see you at the bash, wish you all a bina shadi saath saath sab kuch kar sakte hain and an ek saath do do time.

translatiya: wish you all a "without marriage together can do everything" and "1722 or what sounds like together two two" time.
